The critics have spoken-this New York Times best-seller is "impossible to put down!" Teens and reviewers alike have fallen in love with Demonglass' humor, forbidden romance, suspense, and delicious paranormal fun.

Sophie Mercer thought she was a witch, which was why she was sent to Hex Hall, a reform school for delinquent Prodigium (aka witches, shapeshifters, and fairies). But that was before she discovered she's a demon, and her hot crush, Archer Cross, is an agent for The Eye, a group bent on wiping her kind off the face of the earth. What's worse, Sophie has powers that threaten the lives of everyone she loves. Which is why she decides to go to London for the Removal, a risky procedure that will either destroy her powers forever-or kill her. But once Sophie arrives, she makes a shocking discovery: someone is raising new demons in secret and planning to use their powers to destroy the world. Meanwhile, The Eye is set on hunting Sophie down, and they're using Acher to do it. But it's not like she has feelings for him anymore. Does she?

Instead, he gave his usual creepy grin and asked, “Did one of you lovely ladies say my name?” “Yeah,”I said, glaring at him as I wrung water out of my braid. “We were just saying, ‘Man, I wish Nick would fling himself into the fountain like a nut job and total y ruin our clothes.’So thanks for that.” “Sophie’s right,”Daisy said,

I tipped my head back, sighing as my hair brushed the back of my arms. Magic rushed over and through me. With the water splashing pleasantly and the sun warm on my face, the threat of The Eye seemed very far away. Someone’s thigh brushed mine, and I opened my eyes to find Jenna sitting next to me.

He stil wouldn’t look at me, and was holding himself with that same rigidness Cal had shown in the mil . “Dad, I know ‘I’m sorry’doesn’t even begin to cut it.” Breathing in deeply through his nose, Dad said, “Until your testimony is over, I can’t speak to you.
